Employer Supported Volunteerism

 

Studies show that employees who are satisfied by
meeting personal goals, such as volunteering, are more productive. In today's busy workplace and home environment, people need creative ways to contribute
to their community. Employers can take the lead by encouraging volunteering for the In-School Mentoring Program within their company.

The school day and the work day coincide - so a key component of this program is the employer. Providing a work atmosphere that allows flex time in rescheduling appointments or work hours greatly impacts a person's willingness to become a Mentor.

Many corporations are looking for new ways to contribute to their community. Donation budgets are stretched to the limit and employers are demanding that corporate philanthropy be meaningful for everyone in the company. The In-School Mentoring Program offers a perfect blend of involvement for employees and value for donation/sponsorship dollars.
